Podcasts about Crooked Man

Gần 150 năm sau khi ra đời dưới ngòi bút của nhà văn Arthur Conan Doyle, thám tử Sherlock Holmes vẫn giữ nguyên sức cuốn hút mạnh mẽ. Ngoài là nguồn cảm hứng bất tận cho điện ảnh và truyền hình, nhân vật này còn trở thành một huyền thoại văn học. Tại Pháp, chỉ có các tác phẩm quan trọng hàng đầu mới được đưa vào bộ sưu tập La Bibliothèque de la Pléiade. Gần đây, nhà xuất bản Gallimard đã cho xuất bản trong tủ sách có uy tín của mình bộ toàn tập Sherlock Holmes. Tính tổng cộng là 2.500 trang chia thành 2 tập sách dày, bao gồm bốn cuốn tiểu thuyết và 60 truyện ngắn. Bộ toàn tập này được phát hành kèm với một quyển tiểu sử minh họa dày hơn 250 trang. Đây là lần đầu tiên, tủ sách La Pléiade của nhà xuất bản Gallimard dành một quyển « tiểu sử » đặc biệt, kể lại nguồn gốc của một nhân vật hư cấu cũng như những câu chuyện bên lề và tầm ảnh hưởng của Sherlock Holmes trong dòng văn hóa đại chúng. Điều mà Hercule Poirot và Miss Marple của nữ hoàn tiểu thuyết trinh thám Agatha Christie vẫn chưa thực hiện được. Tác giả quyển tiểu sử "Sherlock Holmes" là ông Baudouin Millet, giảng viên chuyên khoa Văn học Anh và Dịch thuật tại Đại học Lumière Lyon II. Trả lời phỏng vấn RFI ban tiếng Pháp, ông Baudouin Millet phác họa vài nét chính của thám tử Sherlock Holmes. Sherlock Holmes là một thiên tài có khả năng giải quyết các vấn đề trong vụ án một cách dễ dàng đến mức khó tin, thậm chí ông còn hay nói đùa, có thể làm bẽ mặt những viên thanh tra của Scotland Yard bằng những câu nói như : "Chuyện đơn giản thôi!" hoặc "Anh chẳng hiểu gì cả'', ''Bộ não của anh sao mà nhỏ bé thế''. Có người cho là Sherlock Holmes có một bộ óc xuất chúng, có tài suy luận mạch lạc sắc bén, dựa trên nền tảng logic chặt chẻ, chứ không phỏng đoán mơ hồ. Nhờ vậy, ông giải quyết được các manh mối phức tạp, phá án nhanh để tìm ra thủ phạm. Nhưng theo tôi, Sherlock Holmes có một tư tưởng cởi mở phóng khoáng thiên về nghệ thuật hơn là khoa học. Để phá án, nhân vật này không ngại phá vỡ một số quy tắc, thoát ra ngoài lối suy nghĩ cứng nhắc. Ngoài ra, lối tiếp cận của ông thường được so sánh với một nhà khoa học pháp y, vì những phương pháp giám định của ông đã báo trước các kỹ thuật hiện đại của giới cảnh sát điều tra sau này. Ngay tại căn nhà của ông ở số 221B phố Baker Street, Sherlock Holmes thường hay tiến hành thử nghiệm dùng phương pháp hóa học để đi tìm vết tích bằng chứng, nhưng đồng thời ông cũng phải biết suy luận chặt chẽ để vạch trần tâm lý kẻ phạm tội. Một thiên tài xuất chúng chưa chắc gì đã dễ sống chung. Ngay từ lần xuất hiện đầu tiên vào năm 1887 trong truyện "A Study in Scarlet" cho đến những chuyến phiêu lưu cuối cùng được xuất bản năm 1927, trong đó có vụ án nổi tiếng nhất của ông là "The Hound of the Baskervilles" (1902), có thể nói Sherlock Holmes không phải là một người dễ mến với bà chủ nhà (Mrs Hudson) cũng như với người bạn và cộng sự của mình là bác sĩ John Watson. Trong truyện, Sherlock Holmes có tánh tình thay đổi khác thường. Theo tác giả Baudouin Millet, trong mắt của giới chuyên khoa tâm thần học thời nay, nhân vật tiểu thuyết này có triệu chứng của một người bị rối loạn lưỡng cực : Vâng, thuật ngữ rối loạn lưỡng cực chỉ mới được công nhận gần đây. Trước đó, giới bác sĩ từng nhắc đến chứng bệnh ''hưng trầm cảm'' cho đến những năm 1990. Dựa theo cách phân loại mới về các chứng bệnh tâm thần, các chuyên gia nói về triệu chứng rối loạn lưỡng cực khi những giai đoạn cực kỳ hưng phấn đột nhiên biến thành những khoảnh khắc vô cùng trầm cảm. Những đột biến nội tâm này thường không có dấu hiệu báo trước. Trong truyện Sherlock Holmes, câu chuyện được kể theo góc nhìn của bác sĩ Watson và dĩ nhiên ông Watson không dùng chữ rối loạn lưỡng cực vì thuật ngữ này chưa ra đời. Nhưng bác sĩ Watson lại mô tả một cách rõ ràng các triệu chứng hưng cảm rồi trầm cảm của Sherlock Holmes, đặc biệt là trong quyển sách ''The Sign of Four'' (1890). Cũng cần nói rõ, sinh thời nhà văn người Anh Arthur Conan Doyle ngoài đời là một bác sĩ và nhân vật Watson có nhiều nét giống tác giả. Không phải ngẫu nhiên mọi câu chuyện về Sherlock Holmes là do bác sĩ John Watson kể lại, nhân vậy này biết rõ các vấn đề y học. Xuyên qua các quyển tiểu thuyết, độc giả có thể thấy vị thám tử tài ba luôn phải tìm cách xoa dịu những mối dằn vặt trong nội tâm, kể cả dùng rượu mạnh hay ma túy, bất kể bác sĩ Watson có đồng ý hay không. Trong quyển tiểu sử minh họa do Gallimard xuất bản, độc giả vẫn có thể khám phá nhiều chi tiết mới trong cuộc đời của Sherlock Holmes. Nhân vật này sau mỗi lần phá án thường thốt lên câu nói : ''Elementary, my dear Watson" có nghĩa là ''Đơn giản thôi, anh bạn Watson ơi''. Nhưng theo ông Baudouin Millet, câu nói này không phải là của nhà văn Arthur Conan Doyle. Chuyên gia dịch thuật văn học Anh giải thích : Sự thật là trong các tác phẩm của Arthur Conan Doyle, thám tử Sherlock Holmes chưa từng nói câu "Elementary, my dear Watson" (Đơn giản thôi, anh bạn Watson ơi). Trong truyện, ông dùng nhiều lần chữ "elementary" (chuyện đơn giản thôi) để chọc tức viên thanh tra Lestrade của Scotland Yard. Đoạn đối thoại gần giống nhất nằm trong truyện ngắn "The Adventure of the Crooked Man" (1893). Sau khi kết thúc điều tra, bác sĩ Watson thốt lên một câu ngắn gọn  "Excellent!" (Tuyệt vời!), Sherlock Holmes liền đáp lại: "Elementary" (Đơn giản thôi). Vậy thì câu nói kinh điển ''Elementary, my dear Watson) từ đâu mà có ? Thực ra, câu thoại này xuất phát từ các bản phóng tác, chuyển thể tiểu thuyết gốc thành kịch hay phim. Vào năm 1915, nhà văn hài kịch người Anh P.G. Wodehouse lần đầu tiên viết chính xác câu nói này trong một quyển tiểu thuyết hài hước châm biếm (mang tựa đề Psmith, Journalist). Bộ phim có tiếng nói "The Return of Sherlock Holmes" (1929), do Clive Brook vào vai thám tử tài ba là tác phẩm đầu tiên chính thức cho thấy Sherlock Holmes dùng câu nói này trên màn ảnh lớn. Cũng nhờ vào sự thành công vượt bực của các tác phẩm điện ảnh vào những năm 1930–1940 sau đó (do Basil Rathbone đóng vai chính), câu nói này đã được gắn liền với nhân vật Sherlock Holmes cho đến tận bây giờ. Ngày nay, trong nhiều bản phóng tác truyền hình hay điện ảnh, khán giả luôn chờ đợi Sherlock Holmes thốt lên câu nói "Elementary, my dear Watson". Trong mắt công chúng, nó đã trở thành một biểu tượng chính thức cho dù tác giả Arthur Conan Doyle chưa bao giờ viết ra. Về đời sống cá nhân và quan hệ tình cảm, quyển tiểu sử cho biết tác giả Arthur Conan Doyle không tiết lộ gì nhiều về gia cảnh của Sherlock Holmes. Những chi tiết đời tư của vị thám tử, chủ yếu là do suy diễn hay bịa đặt thêm qua phim ảnh. Về mặt tình cảm, quyển tiểu sử có nhắc đến mối tình ngắn ngủi giữa Sherlock Holmes với một người phụ nữ Mỹ tên là Irene Adler, nhân vật này xuất hiện trong truyện ngắn "A Scandal in Bohemia" và từng được Sherlock yêu mến, quý trọng. Sherlock Holmes chỉ gặp Irene Adler một lần duy nhất, nhưng nhân vật này đã thay đổi cuộc đời của ông, hay ít ra cô ấy dã thay đổi quan niệm của Sherlock Holmess về phụ nữ nói chung. Trong một thời gian dài, Sherlock được mô tả như một người đàn ông ''ghét phụ nữ'' do ông sinh trưởng trong một xã hội trọng nam khinh nữ. Bác sĩ Watson không dùng từ ''ghét phụ nữ'', mà chủ yếu nói rằng Sherlock Holmes thường hay chế giễu người phụ nữ kém thông minh. Chỉ sau khi Sherlock gặp Irene Adler, ông mới bắt đầu coi trọng phụ nữ, xem họ có tài năng ngang hàng với mình, hoặc ít ra trong mắt ông, Irene Adler là một ''kỳ phùng địch thủ'' biết đi những nước cờ cao, biết dùng những chiêu bí hiểm. Tuy không công khai thừa nhận, nhưng Sherlock thầm yêu cô Irene và ông cảm thấy ghen tị với tình nhân cũ của cô là hoàng tử Bohemia. Có một điều thú vị, là nhân vật này tuy chỉ xuất hiện một lần trong truyện ngắn, nhưng sau đó lại đóng một vai trò quan trọng hơn rất nhiều, thông qua các bản phóng tác điện ảnh hay truyền hình. Thám tử Sherlock Holmes đã đem lại cho nhà văn Arthur Conan Doyle tiền tài và danh vọng, nhưng vì nhân vật này có một cái bóng quá lớn, cho nên đã che khuất phần còn lại trong sự nghiệp sáng tác của Conan Doyle. Với thời gian, Sherlock Holmes vượt ra ngoài tầm kiểm soát của tác giả, danh tiếng của vị thám tử này còn cao hơn cả người đã sinh ra mình. Có lần nhà văn Conan Doyle cho biết ông ghét Sherlock vì nhân vật này hạn chế việc phổ biến nhiều tiểu thuyết hay với những nhân vật khác, do vậy Conan Doyle  đã tìm cách ''giết'' nhân vật Sherlock trong truyện, nhưng ông lại bất thành. Quyển tiểu sử minh họa trong tủ sách Pléiade, quyển đầu tiên dành riêng cho một nhân vật hư cấu, đã thuật lại quan hệ khá phức tạp giữa Conan Doyle và Sherlock Holmes. Nhân vật huyền thoại này tiếp tục làm say mê nhiều thế hệ qua phim ảnh hay sách truyện. Đứa con tinh thần của nhà văn nổi tiếng từ lâu đã có cuộc sống riêng.

This playlist is 91% vinyl friendly. Near perfect. Philips, The Tina Century Bluetooth Turntable room.. A £350-£400 retro look to blend in with your wood panelling room, it reminds me of a car grill from the 1960s. Built-in speakers with deep (how low can you go) bass and crystal-clear highs. Any track marked * has been given either a tiny or a slightly larger 41 Rooms tweak/edit/chop and the occasional tune might sound a bit dodgy, quality-wise. On top of that, the switch between different decades and production values never helps in the mix here. Lyric of Playlist 154 Tim Hardin’s lyric and song title. 00.00 (Intro) THE FLAMINGOS – Stars (Edit) – Unreleased demo – 1983. Episode #1 for info. 00.41 NEW ORDER – Dreams Never End (John Peel session: 16.2.81) – The Peel Sessions 12″ EP – Strange Fruit – 1987 Diary for Jan 16, ’81 says ‘Karl W round. NEW ORDER JOHN PEEL…‘ Those caps signal something special and the journey had begun at Heaven, London a week earlier. Two good mates called Karl were there, though I hadn’t realised the one at my house listening to the first broadcast of the session was a Carl. 03.45 THE TEARDROP EXPLODES – Second Head – Kilimanjaro, LP – Mercury – 1980 Listening to this album now it’s got a bit of a bubbly and bouncy feel. Judging by a set list suggested for the Manchester Poly night’ that followed ours/mine it doesn’t look like Second Head made into our night here. Packed with Kilimanjaro tracks though. 06.55 TOM PETTY and THE HEARTBREAKERS – I Need To Know – 7″ – Shelter – 1978 Still with a fair amount of ‘rock’ in my world at this point in time, for some reason I thought I’d had a 12″ of this but that would have been a bit daft. At just 2mins 22 plus, a fiery new wave feel that could have made it as an Elvis Costello tune. 09.17 FORMAL SPPEEDWEAR – Who Needs Spain Ball – Punch Card, LP – Melodic – 2026 “Who Needs Spain Ball?”. ‘On the surface, the single functions as a highly accessible, synth-forward New Wave track featuring the record's biggest, most infectious pop chorus. However, the title and the song’s inner mechanics are intentionally surreal, designed to “pull the rug” out from under the listener‘. – Apologies, I forgot the source. An early Talking Heads vibe going on? They’re pulling the rug even more with their merch – with the band’s name the only lettering… album t-shirts! 12.28 BIG JOANIE – It’s You – Sistahs, LP – The Daydream Library Series – 2018 So post punk! 14.48 EGOSLAVIA – Twist Face – Self-titled, (mini) LP – 9 1/2 x 16″ Records – 1982 Not that many will have debated it but I’ve always pronounced this band as ‘Egoslayvia’ and it’s only just dawned on me it was likely ‘Egoslahvia’. Better late… and a band I was introduced to by a US guy who dropped in on John Peel’s radio show somewhere in the ’80s. Very unusual for Peely to have anyone else in the studio with him but his guest was picking tracks from three or so US bands that Peely had never heard of, something that irritated the latter, slightly. 20.08 BIFFER BONKER – 4 Prong, Fucked Up, 2 Potato Thing – Biffer Bonker Is…Unabashed, download album only – ? – 2026 Anyone with a decades long history of Bedford, UK’s musical landscape stretching back to punk bands of the mid to late 70s will have knowledge of Biffer in a former life or three fronting a wealth of different bands but his present world view is available here, with something from the man for me currently getting waylaid by various postal services. ‘No god is required… ‘ Ain’t that the truth and if there isn’t a lyric sheet involved somewhere I might be requesting one :), as he’ll be back here at some point. He’s also the man who introduced me to Click Click via an early demo tape of theirs somewhere around 1984. 23.17 BROKEN SPINDLES – To Die, For Death – Fulfilled / Complete, LP – Saddle Creek – 2004 Content with having spun Induction on an earlier show, and as it turns out, rightly guessing on the album’s diversity I hadn’t been rushing to grab the physical vinyl… but here we are! One Joel Peterson, from Omaha, Nebraska. 25.35 TARWATER – 20 Miles Up – Silur, LP – Kitty-Yo – 1986 From the US to Germany and there’s a far wider breadth to this duos ‘catalogue’ than the two tracks now spun on 41 Rooms would suggest. 29.35 RIPPLE – I Don’t Know What It Is But It Sure Is Funky – 7″ – GRC – 1973 I don’t know about I Don’t Know… but with no UK release it’s unlikely our mainstream radio of the time spun this, though maybe a DJ or two down the Pilgrims or in the Anglers (Inn) Lair across the road could have. I have strong memories of hearing Willie Henderson’s Dance Master at the latter. 32.53 MARY KENT – Lost Generation – 7″ – CBS – 1969 It’s a slower, darker take than the version the song’s writer, Jim(my) Webb put out himself a year later and though Mary’s intro needed red carding for the show her version has some gravitas and feels ‘worthier’ now than it may have done to the UK’s record buyers back in 1969… what with the Vietnam war being… yep, somewhere else. The intro brings to my mind Common Sense’s Resurrection ’95. 36.57 LADY BLACKBIRD vs CROOKED MAN – Whatever His Name (Pt 1) * – Crooked Spirituals Remixes, 12″ – Foundation – 2025 She’s rightly got her soul audience but I much prefer her vocals set against some electronic goings on, as with the already 41 Rooms’ spun Athletes Of God and some remixing bods, including here, Crooked Man. They seem to give her vocals more of an edge for me. 42.18 ROBERTO RODRIGUEZ (feat. MAX C) – About This Love (Crazy P Remix) (Dub) * – 12″ – Compost Black Label – 2009 The vocals are incidental but the track just keeps building, dropping, shifting. A head-nod-a-thon of slight unease. 45.42 CLICK CLICK – Stay Out Of The Water – 12″ b-side – Rorschach Testing – 1985 Great times in the summer and autumn of ’85. Our RT label is off and running with a party at Winkles (Bedford), a P(roduction) and D(istribution) deal with Rough Trade, 500 copies of the initial yellow and blue sleeved 12″ pressing head straight to the US off the back of A-side (Sweet Stuff) getting CC Single Of The Week in Sounds and with spins on John Peel’s radio show there are one-off gigs in London, Brighton and Northampton and rehearsals are sounding great. Gig poster for 28.11.84. Part of a Rorschach Testing ad, The Catalogue #29, Aug ’85. 49.24 SIMPLE MINDS – Premonition (John Peel session: 7.1.80) – Silver Box, 5CD – Virgin – 2004 Having already seen them on the OGWT (live from Hurrah’s New York) and live at the Marquee the previous month I must have heard this session but for whatever reason I definitely didn’t record it. A ropey photo below of mine from London’s Hammersmith Palais, 26.8.80. 54.28 THE FALL – Dktr. Faustus * – Bend Sinister, LP – Beggars Banquet – 1986 It’s about time Mark E Smith (RIP) and his gang made it back here… so they have. 00.01.00 ECHO and THE BUNNYMEN – I Bagsy Yours (John Peel session: 22.8.79) – The Peel Sessions 12″ EP – 1988 This show’s third Peel session track of the era and the song renamed Monkeys in time to nestle next to the track Crocodiles months later on their debut album. I’m with ‘Bagsy’, though. Even us southerners used the term back then, though it might be best to not remember how it was being used here. 01.02.47 THE MOVE – I Can Hear The Grass Grow – 7″ – Deram – 1967 ‘An early, proto-psychedelic freakbeat masterpiece‘ in some modern day circles but a fab bit of wild pop back then. As the years rolled on though, the ‘weedier’ (sadly) Roy Wood’s guitar interjections have sounded. 01.05.52 PETULA CLARK – The Other Man’s Grass (Is Always Greener) – 7″ – Pye – 1967 Husband and wife writers, Tony Hatch and Jackie Trent (or in this particular case, Jackie Trent and Tony Hatch :)), with their key and tempo changing swirler giving ‘Our Pet’ her last Top 20 hit. So idiosyncratic it never got covered by anyone else or maybe offered as an exclusive to Petula? Either way, I bet Trent (no mean singer herself) forwarded a guide vocal version and I’d have been interested in hearing that. And it’s taken me a week to realise I’ve placed two songs next to each with ‘Grass’ in the title. Very unintentional but spooky and true. 01.08.49 BROOKE COMBE – Tears Won’t Lie * – 7″ – Fontana – 2026 I reckon Northern soul’s younger followers will dance and some older purists will very likely pick at the production but Combe and co-writer, James Skelly have nailed it, and if this song had been recorded in the mid 1960s – and maybe on the label this 7″ now pays homage to (with say Kiki Dee?) – there’d be an even bigger price tag on it than this barely out of the 2026 pressing plant £18 7′ already commands. Also, all involved in the Combe camp will have been as meticulous on the look for the dancers in the video as was MT Jones for his I Don’t Understand. Paying homage can be tough stuff. 01.11.19 TERRY CALLIER – Ordinary Joe – 7″ – Cadet – 1972 Terry and producer, Charles Stepney with a ‘skipping along the road’ feel. An even more expensive buy than the above… and I have neither. 01.15.17 CHAIRMEN OF THE BOARD – Give Me Just A Little More Time – 7″ – Invictus – 1970 INV 501. Did Invictus kick off their UK releases with a homage to Tamla Motown’s UK singles catalogue. Five years earlier the latter had also started with (TMG) 501, via The Supremes’ Stop In The Name Of Love. 01.17.57 JACKIE WILSON – I Get The Sweetest Feeling – 7″ – Brunswick – 1968 1968 for Jackie but the mid ’70s for me. Putnoe, Bedford… sunshine… Gill H… 01.20.49 THE CONTROLLERS – Somebody’s Gotta Win, Somebody’s Gotta Loose (7″ version) – 7″ – Juana – 1977 I didn’t knowingly hear this til maybe twenty years ago. With the amount of music that bypasses us, is it possible I’ve never heard the greatest song I could ever hear? 01.24.42 UMBRA MOON – Don’t Let Me Down – Download only – 2024 This Australian girl is seemingly taking longer to break out than I would have imagined but though stylistically aside of my normal listening, this is a gem. 01.28.02 SHAWN PHILLIPS – Solitude – 7″ b-side – Columbia – 1965 With my copy bought for this side alone, there are few artists I’ve come across who have been both super jaunty and deeper than deep in the songwriting department and 41 Rooms can be with Shawn in both moods. 01.30.48 JOHN and BEVERLEY MARTYN – Primrose Hill – 7″ – Warner Brothers – 1970 In 1970 approximately 1% of the American population had a passport, so aside thinking (at best) Primrose Hill maybe had some Civil War battle reference for them they were going to struggle to warm to this London landmark being referenced, even though somebody at Warners US – as opposed to their UK counterpoints – thought this Carole King-like tune had legs as a single. Sadly, they were wrong, with the promo 7″ likely more common than the stock copy. 01.33.40 TIM HARDIN – You Upset The Grace Of Living When You Lie – 7″ promo only – Verve Forecast – 1967 Yep, lyric and title of show 154 goes to… though at 1min 45 it’s nearly over by the time he’s got through singing the line. A ragged, slightly altered take of the song was part of Hardin’s performance at Woodstock but his set only got to make it to an official release of the festival in 2019. 01.35.22 JOSE FELICIANO – Dirty Work – For My Love… Mother Music, LP – RCA – 1974 It’s likely I’d be outnumbered with my thinking here but Jose’s passion makes Steely Dan’s own recorded version, sung by their then main vocalist, David Palmer, sound lack lustre. 01.38.08 VANGELIS – He-O – Earth, LP – Vertigo – 1973 Back in Vangelis’ big years I only got around to wanting his 1976 single, Pulstar but then hearing the Beatfanatics Balearic Boogie Remix of Let It Happen in 2007 led me backwards to this album and it’s the vocals (of one Robert Fitoussi) on both tracks that seem to make the difference for me. 01.42.05 STEVIE WONDER – Pastime Paradise * – Songs In The Key Of Life, 2LP – Tamla Motown – 1976 I bought the album at the time but my youthful ignorance didn’t fully take in the scale of Stevie’s accomplishment and looking now at the full tracklisting there were only six tracks I regularly played, with Pastime Paradise being one of them. The American buyers who took Songs… to No 1 in the Billboard album charts will have delved deeper. 01.45.21 KOICHI OZAKI – Petal Of The Cherry Blossom * – Novo Tempo / Koichi Ozaki: Novo Tempo Meets Eurasian Suite Vol. 2, 12″ – Eurasian Suite – 2004 If I could dip into the whole of the soul/(acid)jazz/beats etc etc world of the Japanese from the ’90s onwards there’d be a basket full of great tunes I’ve yet to hear. So little time… 01.51.22 KEITH JARRETT (TRIO) – Dancing – Changeless, LP – ECM Records – 1989 ‘Original material which is deeply subversive (though also respectfully aware) of the whole tradition of jazz as a system of improvisation on ‘the changes’… On Changeless, there are no chord progressions at all; the trio improvises each section in a single key, somewhat in the manner of an Indian raga‘. – The Penguin Guide to Jazz. ‘These pieces – not written, rehearsed, thought out, sketched, or arranged – ‘came up’ in the middle of four distinctly different concerts. Process is swifter and more accurate than thought.‘ – Keith Jarrett’s album liner notes (edited). Show 155 arrives Sept 6.

SDF returns after two years away with a low-slung stomper, mixed and retweaked by Toby Tobias… In a corner of Wales, where the sea meets the road, there's a Policeman who's bent over a rather small load. Adam, Oliver, Lucy, SDF by their name, caught him twice over on some CCTV frame. Toby Tobias came round with his knobs and his skill, Retweaked and resparkled, and steadied the till, while Crooked Man Barratt, all Parrot and jazz, sent the same crooked cop for a sun-kissed jazz razz. There's a Single Edit too, for those short on time, and a Jazz Police calling somewhere down the line, the sickness at the top, so the old saying goes, runs all the way down to the Policeman's toes. So spin either version, the club one or the dream. On VITS009, nothing's quite what it seems. A tale of corruption, small-scale, none too grand, dedicated with love to the memory of a friend. We're premiering SDF's low slung stomper “Policeman,” reworked by London producer Toby Tobias (Alphonse). SDF's first new material in two years, with Adam Parkinson (Dane Law), Oliver Marchant (RKB Vitesse) and Lucy Whalley telling a two-part small-town crime story about police corruption in North Wales, this time with Tobias on mix and extra production duties, The track stays on the darker road: machinery and mantras riding towards trouble suspended somewhere between a club track and a dubby dream. Crooked Man (aka All Seeing I and Sweet Exorcist) also on remix duties. The release is dedicated to the memory of JD Twitch. Out Friday, July 17, 2026.

This playlist is 73% vinyl friendly. Not bad. The ‘cack handed’ HMV 1507 portable radiogram. When from? It’s old. An online post from nearly two decades ago… ‘… came across this rather strange record player, though quite admirably I resisted buying it! The casing is a bit weird in that the lid seems to cover the entire thing rather than sitting on a bottom half. Then a closer look at the record deck itself made me wrinkle the noble brow in surprise. The pickup arm rests at 90 degrees to the usual resting place. It looks almost back to front! Unfortunately it didn’t have a maker’s or model name, so unless someone can identify it and leave a comment then it will have to remain a mystery for another ten years or so… ‘ And then a decade later, the answer… ‘Your cack handed record player is an HMV 1507 portable radiogram. The type C cartridges almost never work when found now. It’s a cack handed design alright. The radio part is a transformerless AC/DC design but the record deck motor is AC only. Any track marked * has been given either a tiny or a slightly larger 41 Rooms tweak/edit/chop and the occasional tune might sound a bit dodgy, quality-wise. On top of that, the switch between different decades and production values never helps in the mix here. Lyric of Playlist 153 Gil… by a mile! 00.00 (Intro) THE FLAMINGOS – Stars (Edit) – Unreleased demo – 1983. Episode #1 for info. 00.41 NEW ORDER – World (The Price Of Love) (Perfecto Mix) * – 12″ – London – 1993 Nineties house music legend and a fave remixer of the band, Paul ‘Perfecto’ Oakenfold adding some clout and drive to an already sparkling song that, if I’m honest, didn’t in its era always transfer successfully to a live setting. Some of what was floating Oakenfold’s DJ’ing boat back in the day. DJ mag article, 15.10.94 06.51 BESERK IN A HAYFIELD – Club Paris – Cold Waves Of Color Volume 3, v/artists LP – Color Disc – 2016 ‘Packaged in a fancy pants paper cut Whoever Beserk In A Hatfield was/is, their mid ’80s output has regularly featured on re-activated label, Color Disc’s compilations… and they’ll be back here. 10.03 CHRISTIAN PROMMER (feat JUSTINE HOERWARTH) – Tryin’ Times – Rhythmique Nocturne, 2LP – Compost – 2026 Tryin’ Times? Ain’t they just! Maybe not a stream of consciousness in the vocals/lyrics department, at times they’re on more like a bit of a languid ramble… up against busying keyboards that occasionally remind me of Keith Jarrett… but it works! Classy Prommer over some ‘transparent splatter’ vinyl, with a ‘silver particles print’, to boot. 15.24 WATER FROM YOUR EYES – Nights In Armor – It’s A Beautiful Place, LP – Matador – 2025 That’ll be tears then. A duo out of Brooklyn, New York with more motif biziness and on exclusive ‘Clear Blue Smoke’ (with a signed 12″x12″ print, 500 copies) or ‘Coke Bottle Green’ vinyl. 18.34 LA RISSA – Surrender – Download only – 2026 Still with duos but from Brooklyn to Bradford, and never has ‘I wanted to knock your fucking lights out… ‘ sounded so dark wave pop. 22.45 BLONDSHELL – Heart Has To Work So Hard – Download only – 2026 Vocalist, Sabrina Teitelbaum is for some unclear reason doing her best to physically show us her heart on the accompanying promo shot (upcoming Violins album cover?) and I get the feeling her sound is possibly influenced by a bunch of bands in the ’90’s and noughties that passed me by. Could be wrong. 25.53 CABARET VOLTAIRE – Just Fascination (live) – But What Time Is It Really? LP – MemeTune – 2026 Given that the whole album was ‘Recorded on the UK tour Oct-Nov 2025’ and I was at four of the six dates, there’s a 66% chance I was at this performance and that of each of the other tracks. And as it stands right now, I’ll be at the last three of their last ever gigs come October 2026. An iconic and groundbreaking band bowing out, forty four years after I first saw them, below in 1982. 29.46 A CERTAIN RATIO – And Then Again (Flight 12″ version) – 12″ b-side – Factory – 1980 Simon Topping’s vocal on any ACR is such an era capturing moment for me. I can nearly feel the people, ‘sense’ the places etc I knew then. Thanks to the band’s gigography it seems though this track is not one I heard them play live in the times (including the above) I saw them before Topping’s departure in late ’82. 32.14 LONELADY – The Catcher – Former Things, LP – Warp – 2021 Julie! New music, if you please! Best, Dec. 36.29 THE DURUTTI COLUMN – Liars – Renascent, LP – London – 2026 Vini Reilly’s first album in fifteen years… and with maybe more lyrics on this track than on his entire back catalogue! Good to have him back. 40.13 BROKEN SPINDLES – Induction – Fulfilled / Complete, LP – Saddle Creek – 2004 A 180g vinyl album maybe before they became all the rage? Dunno, I lose track of time. Anyway, Broken Spindles was one Joel Peterson and the many layers Fulfilled / Complete was the second of six album sized projects he/it/they released in the noughties. I often wonder what peeps do when they stop making music… and I always hope it’s ‘keep being artistic’ 43.01 RAE & CHRISTIAN with TEXAS Vs THE WORKS – Hush (The Works Remix) – Grand Central Vs The Works-The Soul Sessions Vol-1, download only – ?? – 2026 The ‘Texas’ being wholly that band’s driver Charleen Spiteri, and here with a tad more motion/movement/swing than the original beaut. Hush is still lush. 46.51 GIL SCOTT-HERON (with PRETTY PURDIE and THE PLAYBOYS) – 7″ – The Revolution Will Not Be Televised – Flying Dutchman – 1971 Boy, would he have something to say if he were still alive. 49.50 SHY FX & KINGH – La Prima (B-side) – Download only – 2026 With a third of the utuuuube views that the dub-step’y and longer version has attained in the two months since release but this funkier take is the proper version. 51.16 DOROTHY ASHBY – Soul Vibrations * – 7″ – Cadet – 1968 In her time, a jazz harpist of some standing, with both the album (1968’s Afro-Harping) this cinematic feel track leads off and the single itself now costing serious money in their original form. 54.24 PATRICK COWLEY (feat PEGGY GIBBONS) – Ice Age – Hard Ware, 2LP – Dark Entries – 2025 Whether Ms Gibbons sounding a lot like Donna Summer was a coincidence or Cowley ideally would have liked the latter to get involved on this simple plodder I’ll never know but at least he got to later remix I Feel Love. 01.00.27 SHEILA CHANDRA – Satyam, Shivam, Sundaram – The Struggle, LP – Indiepop – 1985 After her Monsoon ‘Ever So Lonely’ days but she was still crossing over. 01.05.09 JAZZ THE GLASS – MeMorY PalacE – Download only – 2026 Dunbar in the area! Averaging a 41 Rooms appearance roughly every ten shows but in case there’s any suggestion of nepotism, with a whole bunch of tunes I haven’t played. 01.08.12 JC-001 – All My Children (Mother’s P-Phunk Mix) (41 Rooms – edit) * – 12″ – Anxious – 1993 A massive 41 Rooms edit to be honest… and if I was ever to have carried on DJ’ing, I’d have maybe opened any set with the a cappella of ‘All my children now… ‘ An idea to others? You’re welcome. 01.11.39 SIOUXSIE and THE BANSHEES – Happy House – 7″ – Polydor – 1980 Siouxsie once said of this, the band’s second top 20 hit: “It is sarcastic. In a way, like television, all the media, it is like adverts, the perfect family whereas it is more common that husbands beat their wives. There are mental families really but the projection is everyone smiling, blond hair, sunshine, eating butter without being fat and everyone perfect“. 01.15.03 EYELESS IN GAZA – (Across The) Pulse Of The Rain – Mania Sour, CD only – Ambivalent Scale – 2014 Often performed live in early EIG gigs but it took thirty plus years for them to lay down a studio version… and apologies for the slightly brutal intro I edited. 01.17.25 THE SOUND – Unwritten Law (Mike Read session, BBC Radio 1, Oct 1980) – The BBC Recordings, 2CD only – Renascent – 2004 Those BBC sessions – produced in just a few hours – very often turned up superior versions and though I’d possibly be outvoted on this, with more edge in the production and presence in the vocal I prefer this take to the one on their debut album, Jeopardy. 01.21.00 MISTY IN ROOTS – Wise & Foolish (John Peel Session) – The John Peel Sessions, CD only – Strange Fruit – 1995 For me, they were absolutely flying in their earliest (1979-1980) JP sessions, with Wise… being from the third of the nine they did for the great man. 01.25.49 MOUTH – Voyage To The Bottom Of The Sea – Voyage To The Bottom Of The Sea, 12″ EP – Emotional Rescue – 2016 Released thirty five years late(r) but added here to their only ever releases (2 singles)… and that’s definitely Mark Stewart ranting in there at the end. 01.32.24 BLACK UHURU (feat MICHAEL ROZE) – Party – 7″ – Ajang – 2000 A tough reworking of the band’s Party Next Door from 1983. 01.35.43 LADY BLACKBIRD vs CROOKED MAN – When The Game Is Played On You – Crooked Spirituals 12″ EP – Foundation – 2025 The power of electronics – in this case Sheffield-based Richard Barratt – reeeeally adding to a great vocal. 01.41.09 CARON WHEELER – In Our Love (Club Remix) – 12″ – EMI Records USA – 1992 One of a number of tunes she released after her Soul II Soul days proving she was making some top tunes post Jazzie B. 01.44.58 MARXMAN – Theme From Marxman – 33 Revolutions Per Minute, LP – Talkin’ Loud – 1993 ‘Marxist Hip Hop group, formed 1989 in London. Consisting of Bristol MC’s Hollis Byrne (H) and Stephen Brown (MC Phase) and Oisin Lunny and DJ K One from Ireland‘. – Discogs Were they the first hip hop act to play on the ‘revolutions per minute’ thing? 01.48.11 TALKING HEADS – Take Me To The River – 2×7″ – Sire – 1978 David Byrne sounding in less of a hurry to get to the water than Al Green on the original. 01.52.58 SOUL II SOUL – Back To Life (Club Mix) * – 12″ – Ten Records – 1989 Just a couple of tunes along, Caron Wheeler returns with the song she’ll always be remembered for.

EPISODE 126 -  “THE WESTMORE DYNASTY: MAKE-UP TO THE STARS AND BEYOND” - 2/09/2026  Hollywood loves dynasties—acting families, directing families, producing families—but one of the most powerful dynasties in film history didn't appear on screen at all. And it's one of the rare family dynasties that began in silent films and continues working in film and TV to this very day: THE WESTMORE FAMILY.   The Westmores were the architects of illusion and the sculptors of stardom. From the pioneering vision of GEORGE WESTMORE who laid the foundations of cinematic makeup, to the extraordinary careers of his six sons, this family transformed faces into movie stars and shifted the culture of how women thought of and accepted the use of makeup in every day life.  Their techniques, philosophies, and innovations continue to influence how we see characters on screen today—often without even realizing it.  Join us as we spend time with The Westmore Dynasty: Hollywood's ‘First Family' of makeup.

Nous poursuivons notre rattrapage des films plus ou moins nuls (et souvent nuls) adaptés de comics qui n'ont pas eu la chance d'avoir droit à une sortie cinéma en France, ou qui ont été pensés directement pour la VOD et le streaming. Après Red Sonja, Play Dirty, nous abordons le cas Hellboy : The Crooked Man, qui d'ailleurs n'a même pas droit à une sortie en France, à part sur des Blu-Ray import (que nous nous sommes évidemment procurés pour ce podcast).Le débrief de Hellboy : The Crooked ManQuatrième film de la franchise Hellboy, The Crooked Man est une adaptation d'une superbe bande dessinée de Mike Mignola et Richard Corben, produites par deux géants des comics. Et de façon curieuse, le film de Brian Taylor est très fidèle en de nombreux aspects à la bande dessinée, même si l'intrigue profite de pas mal de rallonges et de rajouts tirés d'autres récits de Hellboy. Malgré tout, cette fidélité n'empêche pas au film d'être... complètement raté.

This playlist is 72% vinyl friendly. Not bad. The SL-1300G in 2025. Technics keeping it simple with the design, if not with the spec trying to convince punters they need one. ‘Coreless Direct Drive Motor Achieving Stable Rotation The use of a coreless direct-drive motor with no iron core eliminates uneven rotation of the turntable known as cogging. Also, the twin-rotor construction reduces the bearing load while maintaining high torque and reduces minute vibrations during rotation. Furthermore, the SL-1300G's motor was redesigned to eliminate subtle vibrations that could affect sound quality. To improve rigidity, the same reinforcement pattern as the Reference Class SL-1000R/SP-10R was used for the coil mounting base‘. Any track marked * has been given either a tiny or a slightly larger 41 Rooms tweak/edit/chop and the occasional tune might sound a bit dodgy, quality-wise. On top of that, the switch between different decades and production values never helps in the mix here. NB: THIS PLAYLIST INCLUDES EXPLETIVES. Lyric of Playlist 148 For the reality… Courtesy of Crooked Man, Jarvis’ by a country mile, but… For the idyll…John Sebastian. 00.00 (Intro) THE FLAMINGOS – Stars (Edit) – Unreleased demo – 1983. Episode #1 for info. 00.41 NEW ORDER – Turn – Waiting For The Sirens’ Call, 2LP – London – 2005 With Barney’s lilting, slightly forlorn vocal, a little gem nearly lost on one of the band’s least successful albums. 05.02 LITTLE NEMO – A Day Out Of Time – Past And Future, LP – Domestica – 2013 Though the track originally surfaced in 1987 on the 500 run, cassette-only format of the (debut) album. Even back then it could have been seen as yet another ‘sound’ out of Europe that seemed to echo the UK alternative/new wave scene of a few years earlier. 08.48 KIM GORDON – Not Today – Play Me, LP – Matador – 2026 Get past the intro – where it very momentarily sounds (to my ears anyway) like the batteries ran out – and Kim Gordon drifts nicely across the wash of sound. 12.03 THE COMSAT ANGELS – The Eye Dance – Sleep No More, LP – Polydor – 1981 Judging by a known set list for late Nov ’81 and the fact the band were then promoting the recently released, above album, this track was likely in the set list for my Bedford Corn Exchange gig promotion earlier that month. Big smiles when I hear them… though I’ve sadly never heard a tape of the Bedford night. 15.40 BUNNYDRUMS – Holy Moly – Holy Moly, LP – Fundamental – 1984 The short-lived, mid ’80s Philadelphian band with a quirky mix of ‘new wave’ vocal and a belting soul vocal bv in the backdrop of a low slung, punk country’ish workout. Maybe it’s the ‘yippee-ki-yay’ and pseudo peddle steel guitar? The band have been here before – and will be again. 21.30 COSTUME – Once I Loved (Original Mix) – Download only – 2021 Claudia Placanica’s slightly disconcerting delivery is always the thing for me! 23.54 THE IRONSIDES – The Web – Changing Light, LP – Colemine – 2023 Cinematically soundtracking the ’70s like a good’un! The Streets of San Francisco and its like… which is apt… as that’s where The Ironsides are from. 28.57 BABY ROSE – Go – Through and Through, LP – Secretly Canadian – 2023 My fave 21st century track of the show, Jasmine Rose Wilson (to her mum and dad) with a quivering indie soul vocal – on this tune anyway – that Anonhi/Antony and the Johnsons could have penned and rolled out, albeit with a slightly different sound, no doubt. And that really is the sleeve, honest. I could be wrong but I reckon it’s a photographer’s dud that someone subsequently had a weird liking for. I struggle to actually look at it! 31.56 THE DRIFTERS – Like Sister and Brother – 7″ – Bell – 1973 I had this single in the mid ’70s but with the years since maybe ‘softening’ the senses, this made-to-measure ballad (with lead vocalist, Bill Fredericks sounding more like Johnny Mathis than I’d have remembered) sounds better now than it did back then but in the world we now live in there will be few if any songs written like this again. I had to run the idea past one of my teenage years mates but I reckon that, along with Jimmy Ruffin’s What Becomes Of The Brokenhearted (and others, no doubt), this was a last-dance-of-the-night/grab-a-girl-type tune at Bedford Rugby Club’s Saturday night ‘discos’. I’m making this actually sound like the ’40s but it was the era and I was in my late teens… and until I find my membership card, this’ll have to do. ‘Swing to Boomerang’ indeed. I don’t think they came back. 34.52 EYELESS IN GAZA – Flight Of Swallows – Back From The Rains, LP – Cherry Red – 1986 The intro to my 1984 Rorschach Testing article below sums up my thinking on Flight back then – and though the track was being played live at the time it was a couple of years before it surfaced on the above album. EIG article, Rorschach Testing, 1984 39.22 JONI MITCHELL – Eastern Rain – Archives – Volume 1: The Early Years 1963-1967, 5CD – Rhino – 2020 Truly a legend, such is the quality of the lady’s songwriting this beaut – from a Folklore Radio broadcast, of March 19, 1967 – never even made it to an official album and though it was covered by others and turned up in Joni live appearances of the time it took until the above retrospective to be released officially. And she’ll be back here quicker than you might be expecting. 43.13 SÓLEY – I Will Find You (Live, at the KEX Hostel in Reykjavik: 30.10.13) – Stream only – 2013 With a whole different tone to Liam Neeson’s ‘I Will Find You’ :), a production from the classy KEXP and a song only found on Sóley’s 5 track, 10″ EP, Don’t Ever Listen. This take however is a far more endearing version. 45.54 NORMA TANEGA – Walkin’ My Cat Named Dog – 7″ – Stateside – 1966 Was Norma ‘indie’ before there was such a thing? Sadly, she died in 2019 but search out a short Youtube interview and snippets piece (and the comments that followed) from a decade or so earlier. It was meant to be included in a proposed documentary that never then got going. 48.06 THE ELECTRIC FLAG – Look Into My Eyes – A Long Time Comin’, CD only – Columbia – 2003 From a handful of tracks that possibly didn’t make the cut for the initial 1968 release of the Chicago soul rock band’s second album, this is one of two that were first added to the above reissue. 50.52 LOVIN’ SPOONFUL – Summer In The City – 7″ – Kama Sutra – 1966 Maybe the best known tune on the show, with a forceful sounding John Sebastian and his/their ‘city’ being New York and its Greenwich Village hub back then. 53.13 THE FORTUNES – Here It Comes Again – 7″ – Decca – 1965 Innocent ’60s ‘pop’ with a classy arrangement, and another the likes of which will never be made again… and certainly not by anybody aiming for the charts. 56.09 THE MINDBENDERS – Groovy Kind Of Love – 7″ – Fontana – 1965 Wayne Fontana at the helm (and co-written by a pre-Sager Carol Bayer, I’ve just noted) I think this might have subconsciously stuck with me enough in its chart days (I was 8), to then make it to my record collection in the early ’70s. It felt then like a great many happily got rid of their records (certainly singles) after just a few years coz every second hand record shop had loads of chart stuff from just the 5-10 years prior. I was too young to have been buying the height of ’60s ‘pop’ during its time but picking it up a decade later was dead easy. Bet this cost me 10p or thereabouts. 58.05 SPUDDHA – Ton – Unreleased demo – 2014 ‘Recorded in a single take with a pair of £100 analog groove boxes (Korg Volcas) and there's no multi tracking, effects or post processing. One of the boxes is a three voice paraphonic synth and the other is an analogue drum machine. ‘At the time I was interested in making big, immersive music with an organic quality with sparse loops and a minimal setup. There's a lot of live tweaking and you will notice that the limitations of the synth mean that 1) only 3 notes can sound simultaneously and 2) the voices interrupt each other. Also presets couldn't be saved… if I didn't record what I was doing I couldn't move onto making something else without losing it all‘. – Spuddha. ‘Spud’ to me. 01.04.46 LONELADY – Hinterland – Hinterland, LP – Warp – 2015 Julie Lonelady groovin’ a tune and lyric that should have been here before now. c/w Julie ‘helping out’… 01.09.32 JONI MITCHELL – River (acapella) 01.13.30 ATRIC & FRIDA DARKO – Hide & Seek – Download only – 2023 ‘Always trying to combine genre fluid compositions, qualitative mixing and to take the whole process with a good sense of humor‘. – Them, via Bandcamp 01.17.26 A CERTAIN RATIO – Knife Slits Water (Peel session, June ’81) – Sextet, 2LP reissue – Factory Benelux – 2013 Yep, with Martha ‘Tilly’ Tilson’s oh-so-right vocal, the slightly epic Knife Slits Water. Very coincidentally, the day ACR recorded the above Peel session (according to the Keeping It Peel site) I saw them live supporting Cabaret Voltaire at Leicester Uni and the day the session was broadcast my diary says I had a long phone chat with Rob Gretton – no idea about what, other than re what New Order were up to at that point. 01.25.11 EARL16 – Changing World (Remix) – , LP – Merge Records – 2001 I caught this on a late night KISS FM radio show. His conscious sounds here taken up a few BPM. 01.30.05 COURTNEY BUCHANAN – R U Conscious (Album version) – 12″ – Conscious – 1993 And speaking of ‘conscious’… ‘Courtney has one of the most soulful, spiritual voices to come out of the UK. His music here combines jazzy acoustic sounds with delicate use of technology on a rhythmic, down-paced head nodder. I various mixes, the track’s ‘conscious’ lyrics and impressive vocals are a fine showcase for this British talent.‘ – Ralph Tee, Record Mirror (Music Week), 3.7.93 01.34.42 DELTA HOUSE OF FUNK – Lovers & Losers – 12″ EP – Go! Discs – 1996 Decided to playlist this before I remembered it was another of Ashley Beedle’s works. So, this is with a big nod to a top lad who’s been going through the health ringer in the last few years. 01.39.38 DRAX – Middle Earth – Drax Two, 12″EP – Trope – 1993 Clear vinyl gentle German techno. 01.44.51 CROOKED MAN – Cunts – Crooked Stile, 2LP – Viscous Charm – 2026 The reimagining here courtesy of Richard ‘Parrot’ Barratt. ‘Jarvis Cocker released Running The World in 2006The line ‘cunts are still running the world' is more relevant than ever… 20 years on and Crooked Man thought it needed to be said againHis razor-sharp reimagining is a call to arms with added electronic biteHe's skipped the niceties and titled it CUNTS.Out today on Vicious Charm today. The track is accompanied by an Agit-Prop video directed by British contemporary artist Dominic McGill, who, armed with a photocopier and a scalpel, has cut & pasted a perfect accompaniment to the song – breathless and furious. They are still running the world. It’s a work of “northern genius”, Jarvis’ words, not ours‘. – Bandcamp. 01.47.21 DESPERATE JOURNALIST – 7 – No Hero, LP – Fierce Panda – 2024 Driving indie rockers ever present on Simon Williams’ Fierce Panda label, with a nod to Jo Bevan’s confident vocals. 01.50.22 GANZHEIT – Motions – ‘Summer Of ’84’ demos cassette, unreleased – 1984 With a couple of this cassette’s tracks now playlisted on 41 Rooms, there are more to come from this lost Bedford-based band.

In this episode Mike and Pax talk about a twisty western comedy called There Was a Crooked Man starring Kirk Douglas, Henry Fonda, Warren Oates, Hume Cronyn, Burgess Meredith, and John Randolph.

Holmes and Watson are off to Aldershot to complete their investigation into the sudden death of Colonel Barclay. Who was the mysterious third man that was present during Colonel Barclay's quarrel with his wife? The answer to this question takes us back 30 years, all the way to India, before ending up back in Aldershot. But when it's done, the truth of the Crooked Man will finally be revealed. Let the spiraling tale take you away from the stresses of your day and into a night of peaceful slumber.-----Welcome to the Sherlock Holmes Bedtime Stories podcast.

A violent crime, a terrible betrayal, a shocking death… and mongeese. From The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes, “The Adventure of the Crooked Man” is a complicated and compelling puzzle of a story that circles around betrayal, disability, empire, real-world events and Victorian geopolitics. Content warning: CROO is chock full of Victorian racism, ableism, and imperialism. It comes baked into the plot of this one.

AKAPAD The Film Buff dives back into the Hellboy fray with his take on the character's latest cinematic outing, Hellboy: The Crooked Man (2024). This $20 million gem looks and feels like it was torn straight from the comic page, drenched in gritty folk-horror vibes. But here's the head-scratcher: despite all its strengths, this flick got the cold shoulder from every tier of fan you'd expect to champion it. Time to dissect why the faithful adaptation, killer practical effects, and Jack Kesy's brooding Big Red failed to ignite the passion this movie deserved. Those who brought you Hellboy the Crooked Man Cast Jack Kesy - Hellboy Jefferson White - Tom Ferrell Adeline Rudolph - Bobbie Jo Song Leah McNamara - Effie Kolb Joseph Marcell - Reverend Watts Hannah Margetson - Cora Fisher Martin Bassindale - The Crooked Man Nathan Cooper - Farmhand Carola Colombo - Old Woman Suzanne Bertish - Grammy Oaku Crew Director - Brian Taylor Writers - Brian Taylor, Mike Mignola, Christopher Golden Producers - Mike Richardson, Jeffrey Greenstein, Jonathan Yunger, Les Weldon, Rob Van Norden, Yariv Lerner, Sam Schulte Executive Producers - Avi Lerner, Trevor Short, Boaz Davidson, Tanner Mobley, Lati Grobman, Christa Campbell, Mike Mignola, Michael Mullner, Julia Muentefering, Victor Hadida, Cristina Serafini, Gareth West, Artur Galstian, Vahan Yepremyan Cinematographer - Ivan Vatsov Editor - Ryan Denmark Composer - Sven Faulconer Production Companies - Millennium Media, Dark Horse Entertainment, Nu Boyana Film Studios, Campbell Grobman Films Distributor - Ketchup Entertainment More about Hellboy The Crooked Man Alright, True Believers, let's dive into Hellboy: The Crooked Man (2024), the latest gritty reboot of our favorite cigar-chomping demon! This flick, helmed by Brian Taylor, drags Big Red (Jack Kesy) and rookie B.P.R.D. agent Bobbie Jo Song (Adeline Rudolph) into the eerie backwoods of 1950s Appalachia. They're up against a coven of witches and the sinister Crooked Man (Martin Bassindale), a devilish creep tied to Hellboy's past. Think folk horror meets paranormal detective vibes—less blockbuster bombast, more low-budget chills. Co-written by Hellboy creator Mike Mignola, it's a faithful stab at his 2008 comic, with practical effects that'd make Sam Raimi nod approvingly. Box office? Well, brace yourselves, Wiz fans—this one didn't exactly set the world ablaze. Skipping U.S. theaters for a direct-to-VOD drop on October 8, 2024, it scraped together a measly $2 million internationally. With a rumored budget “way under $20 million,” it might've turned a profit via digital and streaming, but don't expect it to topple Hellboy II: The Golden Army's $160 million haul. A cult classic in the making? Maybe. A cash cow? Not a chance. Excelsior!

Bad To The Lucky Bone Who is The Crooked Man who dares to make a Hellboy sequel without Ron Perlman, Guillermo del Toro, or even David Harbour?  Why it's creator Mike Mignola, bringing his original comic book vision of the character to the screen for the first time!  But did the titular phantom steal all the coins from the production budget, leaving new star Jack Kesy (Baywatch) looking red from embarrassment at the threadbare special effects and creature designs?  Find out if Crank director Brian Taylor gives the franchise the shot of adrenaline it needs when you Listen Now!
